Hi everyone! After being away sick for about a month and trying to catch up on other things at the beginning of this month, I finally am back with some new cards to share!

I received my Tilda with Sunflower stamp from a Secret Sister swap earlier this summer (I've been wanting this stamp for a while now) and I've been wanting to use it and my new in-colour things from Stampin' Up! since they came out in July (seeing as I was doing little to no crafting for a while there).

I stamped the images with SU! Basic black classic ink pad and coloured them in with my Stampin' Write markers. I went with Crushed Curry or Dusty Durango for the base of the card and layered some paper from the Razzleberry Lemonade DSP on top of it. I ran the same coloured cardstock (Crushed Curry or Dusty Durango) through my Bigshot using the Top Note die and layered more cardstock and the image on top of it. I added some 1/2" Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon (Crushed Curry or Dusty Durango) to the cards and finished them off with some Flowersoft in Autumn.

I actually wasn't too keen on the Dusty Durango colour when I first saw it (I liked Crushed Curry right away) but I'm happy with how the colours went together and how these cards turned out.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my creations...I'll have some more to share with you soon!!
